Use Cases and Requirements for AI Agent Policy-Aware Network
With the widespread adoption of AI Agents, traditional network
architectures can no longer meet the demand for efficient
collaboration between Agents and networks. This document proposes a
new paradigm of "AI Agent Policy-Aware Network", enabling three key
transformations: from Flow-aware to Agent-aware, from QoS-based to
Policy-intent-based, and from Network-driven to Agent-network
collaborative. By defining core components such as the Agent Policy-
aware Controller and Agent Policy-Aware Device, this paradigm
establishes a dynamic mapping mechanism between Agent intents and
network policies, supporting key scenarios including autonomous
performance measurement, path optimization, SLA assurance, and secure
transmission. This document outlines the background, scenarios, use
cases and requirements of Agent Policy-aware Network.
